Count me as one of the heathens! ;D
THuckaby2:
Matt: you were Heathen #1 in my mind! We've had this "battle" before... It's all in good fun and hey, there's room in golf for non-believers without a doubt. ;)
Seriously though, I do think the book isn't "just" for us CBMac-ophiles... there is a LOT of great stuff re golf and life in them thar pages George (and Gib) put forth....

FINALLY . . came in the mail yesterday. :D :D
Great work, I can only imagine how many countless hours were spent in its' creation. I love the old pictures (especially of mid-ocean's 5th), and I have yet to really dive into the text, but that will be my weekend activity.
Thanks again for the great book.

Tuesday night I'm out of town and I drop by the local Borders to browse and I come across Nicklaus by Design. Thumbing thru it it's actually not bad. Yes it is only Jack's courses, but there are actually some good architecture & agronomic sections. A pleasent surprise. I go around the corner and I spy this massive white book in the golf section and I see Bahto in the corner. Spent the next 45 minutes in awe.
Amazon still hadn't shipped it as of this Am so I cancelled and bought it locally at lunch today. Can't wait to dive in.
From first look it's as impressive as any architecture book out there.
Way to go George (& Gib)!!

I just returned from my local book store where I picked up the copies I had ordered. While I have just skimmed through the book, it looks great, and as Matt said, it will make a great Xmas present, to yourself and others.
I'm giving copies to some members of NGLA who I am sure will enjoy reading it, and adding it to their golf library.
George, how do I get my copies autographed ?
P.S. Who was the developer who bought The Links, and is any of it left ?
